It sounds like Jayden Quaintance is nearing a return to full contact basketball.
Mark Pope revealed today that Quaintance has progressed to 5-on-0 drills in practice. In three weeks, he will have a strength test to see if he can get cleared for full contact basketball.
“Man, he’s unbelievable. He’s been increasingly ahead of schedule and he’s now jumping in on some 5-on-0 stuff with us on the floor,” Pope said Thursday. “He’s just been cleared to do that, so he’s racing up and down the floor a little bit, doing stuff with no contact. He’s on his way.”
